Figure 1A is showing to the compound of the piezoelectric response and/or negative pressure inhibition effect compressed and loosened according to implementation
The high level schematic diagram of material 100.Composite material 100 also shows the piezoelectric response and/or piezoresistive effect in response to elongation strain.
Composite material 100 may include several elements:With one or more conductive fillers (for example, conductive nano-particles 110, conduction
Stabilizer 115) matrix 105 and gap 120.Gap 120 and conductive filler can be evenly dispersed in entire matrix.Base
Matter 105 can be any elastomeric polymer, for example, silicone-based material, polyurethane material, other foam-like materials etc.,
It keeps its shape after a deformation and includes gap 120 on entire material.In other words, matrix 105 has elasticity, hole
Degree and high failure strain, the usually strain from 50% to 1000%.
In some implementations, elastic polymer matrix 105 can be the product based on foam, form gap 120
(for example, by chemical reaction, introducing foaming agent, by gas injection etc.).It gap 120 can be to composite material 100 relatively
Low weight, relatively low density and relatively high energy absorption.In other words, different from solid material, in composite wood
In material 100, gap 120 is dispersed in entire matrix 105.For example, compared with gap, gap is not used for matrix 105
The density of elastomeric polymer can be about 2 or 3.5 times so big.For example, in some implementations, composite material 100
It can have from 350kg/m3To 800kg/m3Density.
Due to gap 120, so composite material 100 can also have porosity.It can be according to the sky in gap 120
The volume fraction of gas and the size in gap and the porosity for limiting composite material 100.Each of these components can be by several
The influence of a factor, including be used as matrix 105 elastomeric polymer, be used to form gap 120 technique, formed gap and/
Or during solidifying composite material 100 limitation (for example, the size and shape of mold and introducing composite material in mold
Amount) and the amount of conductive filler mixed with elastomeric polymer and type etc..For example, the inclusion of conductive nano-particles is inclined to
In subtracting areolate size.Gap can be aperture (for example, gap extends in each other or is connected to each other) or closed pore
(for example, gap is separated from each other), and size can be changed according to Multiple factors.In some embodiments, the ruler in gap 120
It is very little to could range up 1000 μm.
In some implementations, before curing, the elastomeric polymer as matrix 105 can be mixed with conductive filler
It closes.For example, some elastomeric polymers can be thermosetting property or irreversibly be solidified by heat, chemical reaction or irradiation.?
Before solidification, conductive filler can be combined with uncured elastomeric polymer.For example, poly- by chemically reacting cured elasticity
Closing object (for example, foam) may include two parts, when the two parts mix or combine, form elastomeric polymer.Once
Combination, the two parts just chemically react, and generate the void characteristics of air bag or foam, and harden.Before the combination, conduction is filled out
Material can be mixed with one or two portion.Before curing, some elastomeric polymers can be mixed with foaming agent.With foaming agent
Before mixing, this elastomeric polymer can be combined with conductive filler.Gap can by gas injection, by beat etc. shapes
At in elastomeric polymer.Some elastomeric polymers can be solidified by heat.It can after blending or before curing
Casting, molding, sprinkling or extruding thermosetting elastomeric polymer.
In some implementations, conductive filler may include conductive nano-particles 110.Conductive nano-particles 110 are tools
There is the particle at least one size for being measured as 1000 nanometers or smaller and being made of an electrically conducting material.The reality of this conductive material
Example includes nickel, platinum, gold, silver, copper etc..The example of conductive nano-particles includes nm-class conducting wire, powder and nano wire.May include
A type of nano wire be nickel nano wire (NiN).NiN can be from Conductive Composites company (positioned at UT's
The city Heber) it obtains and by the Patent No. of entitled " Electrically Conductive Composite Material "
7,935,415 United States Patent (USP) and entitled " Electrically Conductive Nanocomposite Material's "
The United States Patent (USP) of Patent No. 8,361,608 describes, the two patents are all contained in herein, by reference.
Conductive filler can also include multiple conductive stable agent 115.Before forming gap, conductive stable agent 115 may be used also
To be added in uncured elastomeric polymer.Conductive stable agent 115 can be any conductive material as stabilizer.At one
In implementation, conductive stable agent 115 can be the fiber of coated with conductive material.For example, conductive stable agent 115 can be and be coated with
The carbon fiber of pure nickel.In some implementations, fiber can be coated with the conductive material of about 20-40% weight percent.It is fine
Dimension can be cut into short length, for example, from 0.1 to 1mm.Fiber can have up to 10 μm (for example, 0.2 μm, 1 μm, 5 μm, 8 μ
M) diameter.In some implementations, fiber can be hollow (for example, tube body).In some implementations, fiber can be with
It is the carbon nanotube (CNT) for being coated with nickel or the carbon fiber (NCCF) for being coated with nickel, it can also be from Conductive
Composites company obtains.Conductive stable agent 115 can increase the intensity and energy absorption capability of composite material 100.It is conductive
Nano particle 110 can also increase the intensity and energy absorption capability of composite material 100, but usually than conductive stable agent 115
Degree it is smaller.In some implementations, conductive nano-particles 110 can be main conductive filler, and conductive stable agent
It can be secondary conductive filler.
Due to conductive filler (for example, conductive nano-particles 110 and/or conductive stable agent 115) and elastic polymer matrix
105 mixing, to be arranged in entire matrix, so composite material 100 is uniform.In other words, composite material 100 and because
This deformeter does not have layer, and its ingredient is usual to outer surface at outer surface (outer wall) in the degree of macroscopical (for example, naked eye)
It is consistent.Composite material 100 macroscopic view degree on can also have isotropic behavior, this is because its do not show it is excellent
The directionality of choosing.For example, conductive material 100 can show along the x-axis, y-axis and z-axis shown in figure 1A piezoelectric response or
Pressure drag.In other words, composite material 100 can show from an outer surface of material to the detectable piezoelectricity in another outer surface and ring
It answers or pressure drag, and it is unrelated with which outer surface is used.As shown in Figure 1A, if do not amplified, for example, 150 He of magnification region
160, then conductive nano-particles 110 and conductive stable agent 115 can be not easily seen.It is shown by magnification region 150 and 160
Microcosmic degree on, the ingredient of composite material 100 can be distinguished, but usually by consistent or uniform mode along appoint
What axis distribution.Therefore, although it is not identical, the general ingredient in the region 150 and 160 even phase in microcosmic degree
Seemingly.
Due to including conductive filler (for example, conductive nano-particles 110 and/or conductive stable agent 115), so composite material
100 pairs of impacts applied along any axis (for example, x-axis, y-axis and z-axis) or other deformations show that negative pressure is resistive and piezoelectricity
Response.In other words, the identical distance of measured electrical response in any direction is above consistent.For example, if along
One shaft detection electrical response, then identical distance is using first axle as the intracorporal any distance of the ball of diameter.Therefore, with
When making deformeter, composite material 100 is not limited to measure the impact reached relative to composite material 100 from scheduled direction.It is pressing
When contracting, show that the material of piezoresistive effect changes resistance.With the strain of increase, the instrument with negative pressure inhibition effect becomes to have more
Low few resistance, it means that compared with when flowing through the material with resting state, electric current flows more easily through the material in compression
Material.On the other hand, when having bigger strain, the instrument with positive piezoresistive effect becomes have bigger resistance, this meaning
The more difficult flowing of electric current.Traditional deformeter uses the measurement strain of positive piezoresistive;That is, resistance increases with the increase of strain
Greatly.Since the Poisson of deformeter material dilutes (Poisson-thinning), so occurring to increase electricity in traditional deformeter
Resistance.When electric current-producing device (for example, battery) is operatively coupled to material, since material is subjected to deforming, it is possible to measure
The variation of electric current.Sensor with negative pressure inhibition effect can all expect much applications, this is because material without
When strain, which attracts very little or does not attract electric current, and may extend battery power applications uses the time.The change of resistance
Change is a kind of electrical response to impact.
On the other hand, the material for generating piezoelectric response generates potential, has the form for the voltage that can be measured.Therefore, it produces
The voltage that can be measured can be generated in the material of raw piezoelectric response, does not need foreign current generation device.Voltage generated is
The another type of electrical response to impact.The material for showing piezoresistive effect will not automatically generate piezoelectric response, and vice versa.
Composite material 100 can be carved in any direction, piezoelectric response or piezoresistive effect without influencing composite material, this
It is because being uniform between outer wall.In other words, since composite material 100 does not include layer, it is possible to cast in any direction
It makes and cuts or carve, without influencing its ability as piezoelectricity or piezoresistance sensor.Thus, for example, sheet can be manufactured
Or massive material, and many sensors are cut from identical.Moreover, once solidifying, there is no need to fill for composite material 100
Electricity;Piezoelectric response is intrinsic in composite material 100 itself.
Since matrix 105 has elasticity, so composite material 100 can measure 80% strain, without being permanently deformed.Phase
Instead, most common strain transducer (metal foil elongation strain instrument) is limited as the yield point of the metal material used in instrument,
Small strain, up to about 5% strain can only be measured.For example, nickel alloy foil gauge can be permanent when strain is more than 7%
Deformation, and damage instrument.Different from traditional metal foil deformeter, composite material 100 can be readily used for setting for biology
In setting, these settings are commonly subjected to the strain of about 5% to 40% order of magnitude.Composite material by itself with it is newly developed
Height deflection deformeter (HDSG) distinguishes, and the HDSG can be by measuring the pressure drag response to elongation strain, to provide up to
The pin-point reading of 40% strain.HDSG is applied successfully in various bio-mechanical situations, but concrete configuration is that quantization is drawn
Stretching strain, rather than compression strain.Which has limited its serviceabilities, because in many biology settings, it is important that quantization compression or
Impact str.

The diagram of one example composite material 100 of bust shot.Image 1E shows how equably conductive nano-particles 110 can
Disperse and is set as through matrix 105.The size that image 1E also shows conductive stable agent 115 is far longer than (for example, big several
The order of magnitude) conductive nano-particles.Elastomeric polymer in the example of Fig. 1 E is polyurethane foam, which, which has, uses
The identical conductive filler in the example of Fig. 1 D, but there is less gap 120.Gap in polyurethane foam can have
There is the average value between 80 μm and 300 μm.Therefore, as shown in figures 1D and 1E, according to the preparation of material, mixing, formation and/
Or the mode of curing materials, composite material 100 can have the gap of different amount and size.
Implementation be not limited to include conductive nano-particles 110 and conductive stable agent 115 composite material 100.Figure 1B shows
The electrical-conductive nanometer including elastic polymer matrix 105, gap 120 and the conductive filler as no conductive stable agent is gone out

And another implementation of the composite material 100 of the conductive stable agent 115 of the conductive filler as not conductive nano-particles.
The variation of the composite material 100 shown in Figure 1A to 1C has shown piezoelectric response and has had negative pressure resistive.It is used
Conductive filler amount and type influence composite material 100 the amount of energy absorption, the cost of composite material 100, piezoresistive effect
Intensity, the intensity of piezoelectric response etc..It is recognized that amount and ratio can depend on several factors, for example, as filler or
Function, expected cost, expected impact amplitude of the composite material of protection etc..
Fig. 2 is to show the conductive filler of different piece how to cause the variation of energy absorption among composite material

Polyurethane foam mixing, can produce the air of the more high-volume fractional of composite material 100, (air is a group of porosity
Point).The conductive stable agent 115 (for example, NCCF) of higher concentration can cause higher energy absorption.Curve graph 200 is shown
How different amounts of conductive nano-particles 110 and conductive stable agent 115 can influence the performance of composite material 100.Certainly, it provides
The ingredient used in table 1 and curve graph 200, as just example, and implementation is not limited to use in formation curve Figure 200
Amount, ingredient or composition material.
Keep the amount and type of conductive filler different, the piezoelectric response and piezoresistive characteristic of composite material can also be influenced, for example,
In the continuous conduction path (percolating network) that conductive filler generates conductive particle and the nanoscale junction between those particles
When, composite material 100 can show more preferable (for example, more significant) piezoresistive characteristic, have the increase with strain, resistance reduces
Form.When conductive filler does not form continuous path (for example, for electric-charge-dissipating), composite material 100 can show more preferably
Or more significant piezoelectric response.
Fig. 3 A is the schematic diagram according to the piezoelectric strain gauge of implementation.The piezoelectric strain gauge of Fig. 3 A includes that there is setting to exist

More than the outer wall of composite material 100.The part for extending beyond outer wall can be operatively coupled to voltage detector (not shown).
When being operatively coupled to one or more voltage detectors, probe 305 and 310 can be used for detect by with to impact (
In Fig. 3 A label be F ") piezoelectric response and caused by voltage increase.As shown in fig. 3, impact F can be along first axle A.

The form that the voltage that probe 305 and 310 detects increases.As shown in fig. 3, composite material 100 is along associated with impact F
The different axis B of axis A generate detectable voltage.Therefore, Fig. 3 A show in composite material 100 detect piezoelectric response be with
The direction (or axis) of impact is unrelated.Fig. 3 B further illustrates probe 305 and 310 and needs not be along horizontally or vertically axis.Phase
Instead, probe can be located at Anywhere along the outer wall of composite material 100, and still give birth to for detecting in response to impact F
At voltage.Certainly, probe can also be arranged or be inserted into the inside of composite material 100.
Fig. 3 C is can also to generate to answer for the piezoelectricity for the data for determining the position of impact F other than the deformation of impact F
Become the schematic diagram of instrument.In fig. 3 c, deformeter includes composite material 100 and multiple probes 305 for being arranged in lattice or grid
To 340.Lattice or grid can be irregular (for example, not needing vertical or evenly spaced) and can have random
But known setting.Each probe (for example, probe 305 to 340) in lattice or grid can be used for detect in response to
Impact the voltage that F is generated.The probe (for example, probe 305 to 340) of closer shock point can measure more farther than from shock point
The higher voltage of probe.Although difference is slight, it can be used for rough estimate impact and occur on the outer wall of composite material 100
Which place.
Although the example of Fig. 3 A-3C discusses detection piezoelectric response, it is to be appreciated that, example is applied equally to examine
Survey the piezoresistive effect of composite material.In other words, probe can detecte the change of the resistance (rather than the voltage generated) of composite material 100
